"Sometimes people speak about [having kids] like, 'Your life ends -- you're never going to be able to do anything again!' And I'm like, 'What are you talking about?' Motherhood is the most beautiful, exciting thing, and there's nothing that I feel like I can't accomplish while having children in my life."She even joked about what her kids with Klitschko might look like. "He's got bowlegs and I've got knocked knees, so they're going to have straight legs," Panettiere quipped during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in November 2013.
